Apparently it's representative of a sizable region of Portugal.

This is a kind of iconic view of the Portuguese region of Alentejo: a rugged wheat field (green or brownish depending on season) and rare cork oaks. Any Portuguese person will recognize it.

Perhaps, but a big sign saying "Alentejo" would be rather disturbing
. Seriously though, there is a little bit of discussion in the article about the topography of the area, which I checked before voting. —

Yeah, the
Palouse of PNW, to which I compare it above, is similarly a very distinct & distinctive region, too – not just anywhere.
That of course means that this image could be used in the Palouse article, too...

Comment. Although this is a nice "artistic" photo, the EV is questionable in my opinion. I get from it that there are fields and occasional trees in that part of Portugal, but not much about the overall appearance of the countryside. The comparison picture "Clouds over hills in Steptoe, Washington" is much more encyclopedically useful in that respect.
